Go read some of the threads in other forums about trailers becoming detached from the tow vehicle, or in one case, the tow vehicle catching on fire and thus catching the 5th wheel attached to it on fire too.
I have no idea why anybody would want to risk their animal's life by putting it in a trailer while traveling, crated or not. I have a 40lb dog, a 55lb dog, and a 60lb dog, and manage to get them where they need to go in either vehicle we have. The 60lber is a 11.5 year old basset hound with a bad back. No excuses, sometimes it involves lifting him onto a overturned plastic bin, then lifting him again into the truck. If for some reason we couldn't get them into the truck, then we wouldn't bring them with us, or we wouldn't travel.
